Oh, please. The people who elected the man who was President for the past 4 years are "the unheard?"

To an extent they are, in that they elected him hoping to get something out of it, and he didn’t deliver much of anything useful. He conned them. Such is the way of politics sometimes.

Well, they saw that over the past 4 years and then voted for him again, so, I have no sympathy, and neither should anyone else.

Then again, the other side voted for Biden, so it's not like we've got stellar options here.

I am very unhappy that Biden was the candidate on the other side. But I saw the alternative as fascism and sectarian violence. I predicted Trumps 2016 win and no one took me seriously. I predicted the rise to prominence of white nationalism and even the Cville event. I think Biden is a terrible candidate but the alternative is worse. If there is ever a non racist non violent Republican party I will join it but right now everything is off.

True enough. I voted for "not Trump." That just happened to be spelled "Biden" on the ballot. :/

In the same way, in 2016 a lot of people voted for "not-Clinton".

Clinton was a terrible candidate. I have no idea if she would have been a good President, but she was the exact wrong person to go up against Trump.

She is a really bad candidate and it was clear Trump would destroy her on TV.

I think she would have been a really decent president, even though I think she has an unpleasant media personality.
